Effective Sewer Blockage Removal – Woollahara

Woollahra Sewer Blockage

Woollahra Project Summary

Mint Plumbing were called to a property in Woollahra after the second-floor toilet became blocked. Residents noticed slow drainage and needed a quick fix. As a trusted Woollahra plumber, we responded promptly.

Inspection Findings: Root Intrusions and Pipe Damage Causing Sewer Blockage


Using CCTV through a rear inspection opening we found the upstream PVC pipes were good. Downstream the older earthenware pipes had several points where tree roots had caused a severe blockage, especially around a dislodged joint. This was restricting flow and causing the toilet to back up.

Our Solution: Clearing Blockages with High
Pressure Jet Blasting

We cleared the blockage with high pressure jet blasting focusing on root affected and dislodged sections. After jetting a CCTV re-inspection confirmed full clearance. We also flow tested the line multiple times with toilet paper to ensure proper drainage. The toilet pan was fully unblocked and draining freely.

The Result: Sewer Line Restored
and Fully Functional

The sewer line is now clear and functioning properly, all root intrusions removed. The system is draining freely and the toilet is working as expected.
